Riyad as-Salihin, 204
Abu Hurairah (May Allah bepleased with him) reported:
Messenger of Allah (ﷺ) said, "On the Resurrection Day, the rights will be paid to those to whom they are due so much so that a hornless sheep will be retaliated for by punishing the horned sheep which broke its horns". <b>[Muslim]</b>.
وعن أبي هريرة رضي الله عنه أن رسول الله صلى الله عليه وسلم قال:
لتؤدن الحقوق إلى أهلها يوم القيامة حتى يقاد للشاة الجلحاء من الشاة القرناء
((رواه مسلم)).

<b>Guidance from the Hadith:</b><br>
1) Rights should be fulfilled to their rightful owners.<br>
2) Rights of the slaves are not forgivable until they are fulfilled.<br>
3) The justice of Allah Almighty is perfect to the point that He settles the rights between animals. So, let those who do injustice to people fear Allah!
